S, Guosr: Thou said twas for meI can see naught concerning me in tlus: J. Guost: 'Twas Wednesday, the third day, xyhen thy praises w ere su.ng. No classes were held the whole day. The maids elssemblgll in seve '-al -1001115 of the large Tudor palace. First a tall young man, with f:m', pink cn::ute- nance and little hair, addressed them on The Age of Shakespeare. 8. Gmosrt: My age, Ben. Faith, I know not how old I be, myself. h Guosr: Why, Will, twas on the age in which we hx;ed-tlle court life and the like. Next a professor talked of thy work, in German, wlnlm another in vet another room spoke of thee in PI'QI.H'IL Anon, jhe m:mh?' assembled Toggefhel' where the tall lady in black again showed pictures of the goodly Globe, the scene of many of thy plays, Will. S, Guosr reminiscently : Aye, the good Globe, many a stormy day had we there, and many a pleasant. . . Guosr: Throughout the afternoon, the maids again assembleda small, dark damsel with fiery eyes told of the Philosophy of the Tempest and ! a small, grey dame with smiling countenance talked of thy use of classi- cal literature. Anon, the maids gathered out on the greensward, and planted ivy vines. Meantime, pictures and flowers were vended by tllw. fair damsels. Straightway again there assembled a great audience in another hallmen and maids, young and oldthere to hear, ah, Will, such a scholarly address on thy life and works as none but a great soul could deliver. .

Aye, Will, even the maids have a love for theethere was many an appreciation spoken by those voung lips. And in the evening, what joy had I fo see the fair damsels dance the old Peasecods and the likeand to hear others play the viols and eclavichord most gracefullymusic from thy Merry Wives., But thou never had such an As You Like It? as was before us on Iriday eve. The fairest damsels turned into thy dukes, Orlando, shepherds and the rest. Such a motley crew. 8. Guosr: My faith. To think I have missed such a scene. Maids on the stage in a New Oxford. A . Guosr: T could not bide the Saturday festivities. TLong boards adorned the . dining room and all assembled in olden garb. Such pasties and pies. Such puddings as the goodly maids and men set forth before the feasters. And the dancing and the jesting was quite too much. I had to escape'twas all too real, and T longed for Merry England once again. S, Guosr: And can T neer behold such festivities with my own eyes? J. Guosr: Aye, Will, and that right speedily. Do thou but come with me to Saturn and we shall behiold mueh in repetition, for 'tis rumored l 9 ey that the maids go to a New Norwich to play and dance again.

Music By Louis A. Coerne DEAR C.C Words by Frederi c'k - Sykgs. Dedicated to the Class of Iy? Theres a college, there's a college, There's a college by the sea, With the hilltops all around it And a river on the lea: Where the elm trees pipe with music, And the sky is blue above, Where life is at its fairest, Filled with work and song and love.
